    I was interested more in his positive comments about Spencer Tracy. I've seen the movie, "Fury" that he is referring to. Burton is right, Spencer Tracy was brilliant.

      Spencer Tracy was one of two Wisconsin natives who won two Academy Awards for Best Actor, Frederic March the other.

    Thanks Dick for all your great interviews & posting them here. Mr. Burton was indeed a treasure & sadly left us too soon, along with many others.

    My all time favorite Richard Burton scene....in Cleopatra when he finally tells her off. He lived longer than many with his hard life style....RIP to a legend.

    Dick is the BEST interviewer. PS I thought the wife he was referring to was Elizabeth. But they were long divorced. It's funny how she eclipses all of his paramours. Now they are both in heaven together maybe, no more. problems?

      Of course she does. They were still talking toward the end of his life.

    Interesting that a bunch of these Burton videos are popping up on youtube recently.
    In August Burton will have been dead for 40 years. 😢

    Wow can you imagine he said Elizabeth Taylor will become a cult figure! And sure enough she did.

  • @Springbok314
    @Springbok314 Před 4 měsíci +1

    Burton was a remarkable talent. But the booze my gosh. How else can you explain marrying and divorcing Elizabeth Taylor twice?

    • @yvonneplant9434
      @yvonneplant9434 Před 3 měsíci

      He never really acknowledged his alcoholism like she did.

    • @yvonneplant9434
      @yvonneplant9434 Před 3 měsíci +1

      How else to explain it? Maybe he really loved her.
